FROM soft powder pink to neon power pink, this is a colour that's currently in hot demand.
As 'the' shade of the season, everyone's clamouring to get their hands on the must-have pink statement pieces inspired by the catwalks.
But during October pink is about much more than fashion trends; it symbolises hope as the colour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCA).
